The ideal candidate understands how consumers discover and purchase products across retailer environments and can translate search behavior, keyword and product-level performance, and retail signals into measurable sales growth. Working closely with the Director, Commerce Search, you will own the day-to-day strategy and execution of complex retail search programs, with a particular emphasis on Walmart retail search. You will be responsible for campaign architecture, keyword and product targeting, bid and budget optimization, pacing, reporting, troubleshooting, and ongoing performance improvement. Beyond campaign execution, you will help develop scalable optimization frameworks and retail search best practices while identifying opportunities to improve performance across brands, retailers, and product portfolios. ### Key Responsibilities ### Retail Search Strategy & Hands-On Activation - Lead the day-to-day strategy, hands-on activation, management, and optimization of retail search campaigns, with a strong focus on Walmart Connect. - Personally build, launch, manage, and optimize Walmart retail search campaigns from campaign setup through ongoing optimization and reporting. - Develop sophisticated keyword, search term, product targeting, bidding, budget allocation, and campaign-structure strategies. - Manage campaigns across Walmart Connect and Amazon Ads, with additional retailer experience across Instacart, Target, Kroger, or other retail media networks considered valuable. - Own campaign setup, QA, pacing, budget management, bid changes, keyword optimization, product targeting, troubleshooting, and ongoing performance management. - Analyze search-query and keyword performance to identify opportunities for expansion, negative targeting, bid adjustments, and improved efficiency. - Identify opportunities to increase product discoverability, search visibility, conversion, sales growth, and return on advertising investment. - Manage retail search across large product assortments while balancing brand, category, SKU, and business priorities. - Translate client objectives into executable retail search strategies and optimization plans. ### Walmart Retail Search Expertise - Serve as a hands-on Walmart retail search practitioner, with the ability to directly manage and optimize campaigns rather than solely providing strategic oversight. - Apply a strong understanding of Walmart's retail search environment to campaign architecture, keyword strategy, product targeting, bidding, budgeting, and optimization. --- Data: alder (https://alderhq.app).
